Artists Unite is a proud member of Team Fox.
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurological disorder. In the United States, approximately 60,000 new cases will be diagnosed this year alone. Currently, there is no known cure. Together, we can change that.
Artists Unite is part of a global community transforming passion into purpose in the fight towards a cure. In collaboration with The Michael J. Fox Foundation and Team Fox, we are raising critical funds to support groundbreaking research and accelerate the path to a cure. Our mission is to harness the power of art, creativity, and community to make a meaningful impact — one event, one artist, one donation at a time.
Event Schedule
